Physics
enlightens the world
Japan
What
we have done are as follows:
-
Main route in Japan, we transferred message among 17 physics departments.
- "Light
and darkness"wave all over Japan; 4776 citizens participated.
-
Message to neighboring countries:
"Dear Friends in Phillipines, Indonesia and India
We are sending our heartiest greetings to you from all physicists in Japan."
In Japan, we had two events on this special day:
-
One is the main route connecting physics departments of
17 universities. Thus we transferred
greetings from one to another. However, unfortunately no signal arrived
from US nor Micronesia, which we had expected.
- The
other event was "light and darkness wave". We
had about 5,000
articipants from all over Japan. Each put off the light for two minutes
at assigned time according to the longitude. This resulted in the darkness
wave propagating from easternmost part of Japan to the westernmost part
of
Japan.
